Light burger bun is a type of soft and fluffy bread, specially designed to accompany burgers and sandwiches. Its light and airy texture allows it to absorb the juices from the meat and other ingredients well without falling apart, offering a balanced experience between flavor and consistency.
This bread originates from American cuisine, where the burger became popular as a quick and delicious dish. However, the light version has been developed for those seeking a less dense option, with lower calorie content and greater ease in combining with multiple ingredients.
Among its properties, its lightness, soft texture, and generally lower fat and sugar content compared to more traditional breads stand out. Furthermore, it usually contains refined wheat flour, yeast, water, sugar, and a controlled proportion of fats, which helps maintain its freshness and fluffiness.
In different Hispanic American countries, the light burger bun is also known simply as burger bread, torta bread (in Mexico), or sandwich bread when referring to similar varieties but used for other types of fillings. Some places may call it more specifically based on its texture or preparation, but generally these terms are understood for recipes that require a soft and light bread for burgers.
